Attention is called to the danger of simultaneous- 

 ly prescribing in one and the same mixture potas- 

 sium iodide and potassium chlorate. When this 

 mixture comes into contact with the acids of the 

 gastric juice, iodine is liberated, which, in its turn, 

 acts upon the potassium chlorate and liberates 

 chlorine therefrom. Sohet also alludes to Melsen, 

 who long ago determined that dogs could be killed 

 by administering a mixture of !& centigrammes 

 (t grains) of both salts. The combination of two 

 salts mentioned can therefore not be regarded as 

 free from danger, inasmuch as a poisonous sub- 

 stance results from the action of one or the other.
